Backroad Freedom

[Verse 1] Dust on my boots and a map in my hand Sun goin’ down over nowhere land Radio crackles, an old song plays Talkin’ ‘bout love in simpler days [Pre-Chorus] And I’ve been runnin’ from the weight of it all But out here, man, I can finally breathe [Chorus] Give me that backroad freedom, wide open sky Where the past don’t chase me and the miles roll by Just a tank full of dreams and a heart untamed Ain’t nothin’ gonna hold me, ain’t no chains Yeah, backroad freedom’s callin’ my name [Verse 2] Rust on a sign says “Welcome Home” But I’ve been driftin’ too long alone Every mile’s like a brand new start Tryin’ to outrun a broken heart [Pre-Chorus] But the wind through the window sings me a song Sayin’ “keep goin’, you ain’t that far gone” [Chorus] Give me that backroad freedom, wide open sky Where the past don’t chase me and the miles roll by Just a tank full of dreams and a heart untamed Ain’t nothin’ gonna hold me, ain’t no chains Yeah, backroad freedom’s callin’ my name [Bridge] Maybe redemption’s a gravel road Maybe forgiveness is lettin’ go Every turn’s just a chance to be The man I swore I’d be [Breakdown] Just me, these wheels, and the midnight air… [Final Chorus] Give me that backroad freedom, sunrise glow Where the broken pieces finally let go Yeah, I found my truth where the wild winds roam On a long dirt road that leads me home Yeah, backroad freedom brought me home [Outro] Dust settles down… engine hum fades… But the road still calls my name…
